Nintendo holding Wii U press event next month

Nintendo has announced it will host a Wii U press event in New York City next month.

The invite-only function takes place on September 13th and will be presented by Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime.

Nintendo states the event promises to reveal “more about how the Wii U will change the future of gaming and entertainment.”

Vague at best, but history suggests release date and pricing info could arrive via the presentation. New York City has served previously as host to both Nintendo’s Wii launch event and its 3DS release date announcement.
